Have whites been slaves?

No, whites have not been slaves. They are at the top of the social ladder and has access to everything. They live a life of luxury and were not controlled by anyone. This is incorrect. Throughout history there have been many instances and still are of white slaves. Many were enslaved through indentured servitude, including children who were often sold of to pay their parents debts. Because they could only be enslaved for certain periods of time they were often sold, abused, raped, and treated worse than their black counterpart because they were considered disposable. If they went to the police to complain they were largely ignored because they had no rights.

When were black people treated fairly?

=African Americans have not always been treated fairly, but the truth is they have been treated better than the white people. Rome had slaves and so did Egypt. In fact most slaves where white. But if you wanted to know when blacks where no longer enslaved in the U.S., I would tell you in 1865. Even though this is true, there are many slaves today in countries over seas.==African Americans have not always been treated fairly, but the truth is they have been treated better than the white people.
